Matt Forte (17-33) was held to 1.9 yards per carry, and with Cutler hobbled and unable to scramble, the Bears run game stalled horribly.

Passing defense: C

The Bears held the best receiver in the game, Calvin Johnson (6-83), at bay, but he still hauled in two TD catches, and Stafford (18-for-35 for 219 yards) threw three TDs and spread the ball around to six different receivers.

Rushing defense: C-

Reggie Bush (14-105) had his second 100-yard rushing game of the season against the Bears, averaging 7.5 yards per rush. Chicago was outgained 145-38 on the ground.

Special teams: C-

Devin Hester had one 39-yard return, but that was basically it, and Chicago was still unable to make a difference on special teams.

Coaching: C-

First-year head coach Marc Trestman may have learned a lesson about leaving a hobbled quarterback in for a little too long — don’t do it. McCown could have finished this comeback on his own if he would have had a little more time.

Overall: D

The Bears fell four yards shy of tying this and forcing overtime, but this is still a home loss that could very well come back to bite them hard down the stretch.
